Aircraft description

Following a lower-powered prototype in the mid-1950's, the Comanche was developed and improved to the 260HP version in 1965. The type was produced until 1972 when a flood sadly destroyed the Piper facility, after 1029 units were built!

This stunning, fully IFR example offers Garmin equipment throughout, with near-new paintwork, very low engine hours, and a newly overhauled propeller.

Meticulously maintained with full logbooks and no accident history, this aircraft is strictly for the discerning Comanche buyer.
